Panthers are going to make some noise.... a Viking perspective

I still remember him begging for pro-bowl votes on the jets sideline. He also seems kinda peeved that his boy Teddy is gone and may not get the bulk of the targets anymore. 

If he was at OTAs I probably would not view him as harshly. I realize he has played with The Darnold before but every rep counts. Guys that get that go a long way in this league, guys that don't move teams a lot. 

IDC if he shows up for OTA's as long as he shows up for the games. I have no concerns about him.

I have no issues with that, just does not seem right to me, but to each his own.

I don't know the scenario so I am not gonna judge him. I care that he produces during the season. 

If that doesn't happen and he lags behind the rest of the WR corps, then he deserves all the scorn you can pile on.

I dont know the scenario either, but as one of the top guys on offense I think he would only benefit from attending. I guess with him not there it does allow the younger guys to get more reps, so that is a positive I suppose. 

I also care that he produces during the games. He is a Panther for now so I will support him.

It is OTA's and not training camp. I would be more concerned of he wasn't there for training camp.

He's probably butthurt. He was likely hoping for, maybe expecting an extension. Instead, we drafted his replacement. I expect him to show up with a chip on his shoulder at camp. He's playing to audition elsewhere for his next contract.

This, that is my only beef with the guy. He seems like a holdout type of guy, instead of a show up and produce type of guy. If he plays well enough i dont think we let him walk without making an offer, but as it stands this is his last year as a Panther.

Yeah, I get that OTAs are not mandatory but come on.  Your job is WR on an NFL team.  The team is having workouts with a new QB.  IDC if he knows what Sam can and cannot do. Especially since you have a ton of new WRs on the team. You're supposed to be a leader of the WR Corps.  If you are truly dedicated to your job that pays you millions of dollars.  YOU SHOW UP.

    • Philly's defense is great and they run the ball a lot and control the TOP (and they certainly will vs us - this is a big mismatch), so even if Bryce is at his best, I doubt he would have a chance to crack 300 passing yards.  Be damn impressive if he does though, but it all just depends on volume, efficiency, and most importantly... not turning the ball over.
    • Even with Cam I don't think it would have been a hard sell. He always loomed larger than life, but most people that understand football understand the reality of the game. One wrong hit, one wrong step, and a career can be over. It's the thing I've been frustrated about most with every GM we've ever had, including Morgan to this point. We never really developed the QB room. We relied on our starters and when Jake and Cam fell apart, so did the franchise. That's the one position that you can't really afford not to develop a plan B, but we do it with regularity. Dalton wasn't supposed to be a serious threat to Bryce's job and Jack was never a threat to be anything at all. JMO, but we should always have a young guy we're trying to keep on the bench with at least 2 years in the system. If they're not getting it, move on, but always keep rotating guys through. It seems like 2-3 years really is the magic point for QBs to either get a handle or not. It's probably not going to happen, but I'd really like to see that 3rd QB emergency slot become a permanent place to work on developing young QBs. I think it could benefit every team in the league because it's so hard to carry 3 QBs on the roster with all the turn over during the season due to injuries. 
    • Agreed which is why I mentioned it and framed it as being certainly an eat crow moment for a lot of people myself included. I'd love to see him shock the league like that. I think the direction the conversation went immediately after is a prime example of how the topic of Bryce Young in general has become so bitter and contentious. The fanbase is split between people who want to see him look like a first overall pick over the course of multiple starts and not just against inferior defenses and people who apparently have low expectations and are just fine with him not looking horrific. But that's not how the NFL works and that's not why we drafted him.
